Dear Friend: came here to your fathers
Thursday. soon after you had left. and have
waited patiently till now; but, as my time is
very much needed elsewhere, I cannot stay
longer. 1 shall go away very much disap-
pointed at not seeing you, as have driven
all the way from Minor 70, that purpose.
You know 1 told you last spring l would come
down to see you before court convened. /
have kept my word. / presume you have
heard that l was convicted ut Fargo on that
election case. We'll, was, but the verdict
of the jury
WILL DE SET ABIDE
by the judge beyond doubt, and if it is not
l shall carry the case to the supreme court
and there it 1.-THE decision) would be reversed.
Do not think for one moment that my enc
mics have conquered me, for they hay not.
L received teleerAu 1roin my attoI
ney, w. w. Erwin, of St. Paul,

he said he would come to Lisbon on receipt
of telegram from nie stating that was in
dicted. Now, Sarah, if you do not turn
against me on the grand jury stand, we will
not be indicted. have seen the list Of jurors,
and / am sure that we will not be indicted
unless you testify against US. If you are
summoned before the grand jury, perhaps
you had better go, but, for Gods sake. do not
answer any questions or make any state
ments whatever. You need not, if you do not
want to. They could have the same right to
make me go and
TELL WHAT KNOW
as they have to make you do it. Keep quiet:
say nothing; trust to those who have the same
interests at stake as you have, and not TO
those who are trying to ruin you. In regard
to that paper Ryman had containing your
statement, let me say that he has not got II

care of it. I will not be convicted in case
am indicted Can you turn against me and
not injure Mary? In case you turn against
me You will have Erwin, of st. Paul, firing
dirty questions at you for days, for that is
| Just the kind of u man he is. You do not
| want Erwin against you; nor do you want
me against you. Sarah. just stop to remem-
| Der the many promises we have exchanged in
regard to this affair. How many times we
! have pledged our words of honor to be true &c
| each other. We're those promises mere ldle
talk, or were they words spoken in sincerity
and to be kept? AS have said, be true u
me and will clear you. ] have
HEARD STRANGE STORIES

| these stories were not true, and acting upor
| that belief have come again. Shall / come
| down after you and take you up to Lisbon tt
| attend court? l will il you will let me. l.
| you say so l will come down one week from
| tomorrow Sunday after you. Write me a
once and let me know. Be true to yoursel
and to me, and l will defend you and clea
you or share the same fate as yours. As
